The statements on Elan Vital and Prem Rawat Foundation websites that he supports himself and his family by independent means, and that he is a successful private investor, are lies.
The fact is, if Rawat was sincere in trying to reach as many people as possible, he would remove all obstacles, especially the appearance that he is obsessed with material possessions.
The fact is, even when Rawat attends speaking engagements, the emphasis is on ensuring that Rawat, his family, and his mistress, are kept in levels of luxury usually reserved for heads of state, all at the expense of the premies in the area where the event is held.
